Voids, the most studied type of manufacturing defects, form very often in processing of fiber-
reinforced composites. Due to their considerable influence on physical and …

Abstract Liquid Composite Molding (LCM) processes are cost efficient manufacturing
alternatives to traditional autoclave technology for producing near-net shape structural …

In this study, we present a review of the modeling of void formation and unsaturated flow in
liquid composite molding processes. We examine modeling efforts considering all the …

Replacing autoclave processes is a well-known industry drive in the composites community.
One of the most recognized candidates for this replacement is high injection pressure resin …

This work aims at assessing the effect of the stacking sequence of hybrid laminates on the
3D void formation through a statistical approach. For that purpose, a three-dimensional …

An experimental program to characterize the effect of voids on the strength of composite
laminates is presented. The adequacy of a fracture criterion to represent the experimental …

The void growth and fiber volume fraction in filament winding composites are critical to the
mechanical performance of composite structures. In this paper, a comprehensive prediction …

The main objective of this study is to analyze the effect of the stacking sequence of
glass/carbon-reinforced hybrid composites on the impregnation quality and on the formation …

Tomographic imaging using both microfocus radiation and synchrotron radiation was
performed to assess the void defects in resin transfer moulded woven carbon fibre …

The properties of composite materials are highly dependent on the fiber and matrix fraction
and on the porosity resulting from micro voids. This paper addresses void content …
